The free calendar features different male employees of Spengler in amusing scenarios each month.

Calendar owners have the option to trigger a $5 donation to a Metro East fire department by using a Spengler Special coupon inside the calendar.

Each time a coupon is redeemed the company will donate $5 to the Spengler Everyday Hero Fund, which will donate grants to fire departments in Belleville, Collinsville, Columbia, Edwardsville, Fairview Heights, Highland, O'Fallon, Shiloh, Troy, and waterloo.

The fund has committed a minimum donation of $1,000 to each department regardless of coupon redemptions.

Calendars will be distributed for free throughout the Metro East, and will be available in the January 20 edition of the Belleville News-Democrat.
